Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Iliad of Homer, Vol. 1: Done Into English Verse Of the bitter contention between hero and king; of pestilence on earth and strife in heaven. The wrath of Achilles the Peleus-begotten, O Song-queen, sing, Fell wrath, that dealt the Achaians woes past numbering; Yea, many a valiant spirit to Hades´ halls did it send, Spirits of heroes, and cast their bodies to dogs to rend, And to fowls of ravin, - yet aye Zeus´ will wrought on to its end Even from the hour when first that feud of the mighty began, Of Atreides, King of Men, and Achilles the godlike man. Which of the Gods into hate and contention drave these twain? The son of latona and Zeus, for his wrath was the war-king´s banc, That he sent forth a plague though the host, and the people were smitten and For Atreides rejected the prayer of his priest when Chryses cried, When bereft of his daughter the sea-swift ships of Achaia he sought, To deliver from thraldom his child, and a countless ransom he brought; And the wreaths of Far-smiter Apollo in holy hands he bare On a golden sceptre, and cried unto all the Achaians there, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
